Niner since 2004

I have a background in social sciences (Communication Science) but started to catch interest in information sciences, followed a webmaster course and started with simple html, but since then it got a bit out of hand and now I'm trying to get a grasp of programming (Visual Basic.Net), working mainly with Web Forms.

Check me out on the web at Webmove - Homepage.

I worked already a bit with Expression Web, and it's an intuitive css designer indeed. Something I do miss a lot in Visual Studio 2005, is Intellisense for your style definitions, so that if you add a style-class to an html element, you don't have to look
up every time your style classes in the css-stylesheet. This is a feature that is already for a long time available in other html-designers (ie DreamWeaver), but luckily it's now alsow available in Expression Web.

Concerning the Orcas demo, I saw Guthrie demonstrate Orcas live in Belgium (Mechelen).

Interesting video. I've seen a demo of Visual Studio 'Orcas' by Scott Guthrie, and I was impressed by the better designer, and the new LINQ-functionality. I hope their will be an ongoing engagement to improve the designer in future versions, because designing
a nice web interface is still somewhat a hassle in Visual Studio, and not every firm has the luxury of having a designer team at their service.

Great session. It gave me a broader insight in the working, and the issues involved, of an operating system, in particular Windows NT. I'd love to see sessions in the same vein on the upcoming Windows 'Longhorn'.
